Ecosystem

Nexon appears in no ecosystem directory. This record comes from the 2026-09-04 AVAX typed-edge research pass (backend/scripts/data/avax-typed-edges-proposal-2026-09.json), which sources relationships from first-party prose rather than from listings. Nexon's own annual securities report sets out the corporate chain NEXON Korea Corporation -> Nexon Universe Corporation -> NEXON UNIVERSE GLOBAL LIMITED -> NEXPACE LIMITED. Sourced in the 2026-09-04 typed-edge research pass; this row exists to carry that researched edge, not because the org appears in any directory.

Enrichment note

This entry is a SHELL created from the 2026-09-04 typed-edge research pass. Its prose restates what the cited first-party sources say and nothing more — it is not editorial and no company profile has been written. It exists so the graph can carry the researched typed edge for Nexon (nexpace SUBSIDIARY_OF nexon); replace it with a researched About body before it carries coverage.

Chain membership: Nexon is a traditional game publisher with NO direct chain footprint. Its only evidenced on-chain presence is indirect, through its affiliate NEXPACE, whose MapleStory Universe ships on Avalanche. chains cannot be empty (entity-create refuses it and a chainless entity is born red), so the entity carries the one chain its evidenced Web3 work reaches - recorded as indirect rather than presented as a build footprint.
